Which, despite how unpalatable aspects of living here may be, makes me hesitant when looking at other places now. They may seem fine now, but may be no better or worse than where I am in 5 or 10 years.
The gilded cage is attractive, but has some issues.

konata88Lol. Agree. Aspects with a basis in people (gov, laws, policies, regulations, businesses, sprawl, infrastructure, schools, community, etc) sucks. Aspects with a basis in nature is good (weather, insects, water quality (YMMV), natural areas, nothing that wants to kill (ie - rare to have any deadly wildlife encounters), etc).
